Russian Antonov-124
The canadian government illegally seized the aircraft in February of 2022 and it's still at the Pearson airport being charged parking fees now in the thousands of dollars, fees that will be passed on to canadian tax payers because Putin will certainly not pay the fee. Trudeau should have let the aircraft return to Russia the legal owner of the aircraft, Since Trudeau seized the aircraft he should personally have to pay for the parking fee not canadian tax payers.
Don't let your wife talk you out of buying an airplane,

Re: Russian Antonov-124
Illegally? Like Russia invading borders?
Cool. I’ll bite,
Parking fees for that Antonov are about a thousand a day, good windfall for the GTAA. Keep that plane in the corner, maybe you’ll have some money to repair the escalators and tunnel walkways.
That plane was built in Ukraine.
There’s laws in place to seize airplanes and assets. If parking fees don’t get paid, we own a cool new plane
Also, you think the GTAA cares? It’s parked so far away from anything, it’s not hindering operations. That thing can sit for decades and it would have zero impact on YYZ operations or costs

Also, I’ll go one further. That plane sitting, has cause Russia not to be able to move troops and supplies as easily as they have wanted. People are alive (Ukrainians and Russians) because this thing is parked. I’ll pay the tax happily, but it won’t come to that

I wish that plane was flying Ukrainian military transport missions, helping un-alive Russian invasion forces.CaptDukeNukem wrote: ↑Thu Dec 05, 2024 1:15 pm Also, I’ll go one further.

The government isn't gonna pay the parking fees. At most the GTAA will write it off, and get a tax break.
Re: Russian Antonov-124
The plane belonged to a Russian civilian airline that was bringing covid supplies to Canada.
Can you imagine if, hypothetically, China was opposed to Canada invading Afghanistan. So they decided to seize all Canadian planes they had their hands on so they could fund the Taliban?
The so called western "rules based order" actually has no rules and isn't based.

Re: Russian Antonov-124
I disagree. The war in Ukraine could have been over in 2022 if not for the massive amounts of military aid provided to the Kiev regime by the west.CaptDukeNukem wrote: ↑Thu Dec 05, 2024 1:15 pm Also, I’ll go one further.

Tens of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers would still be alive if not for western governments keeping the war going.
Re: Russian Antonov-124
Why is anyone concerned about parking fees if you've got a multi million dollar asset as collateral
?

As an AvCanada discussion grows longer:
-the probability of 'entitlement' being mentioned, approaches 1
-one will be accused of using bad airmanship

Ukraine was part of the Former USSR, the Russian fleet of naval ships were based there, You could say that Hawaii does not belong to the USA, and that Texas and California belongs to Mexico.

Re: Russian Antonov-124
We can't steal anything from Trudeau he lives off our taxes like a homeless bum collecting welfare, I would steal his airplane if he had one or his car, The guy was a kindergarten teacher before he joined the liberal socialist crime party, now he steals aircraft from Putin,

Re: Russian Antonov-124
This whole topic has degenerated into offensive and historically inaccurate diatribes by Russophile apologists, with no basis in fact whatsoever.
To the poster(s) claiming that there is no historical basis for, nor any unique Ukrainian identity, you clearly have no idea what you are talking about. As for the claims around the Rus, note the dynasty is referred to as Kievan Rus as Kyiv was considered its centre... and the Tryzub was a dominant symbol, which later became the coat of arms of the independent Ukraine.

Yes, modern day, and post-1991 Ukrainians are longing to be Russian. That's why they're fighting so aggressively... 

Re: Russian Antonov-124
Doubt it will ever fly again. Where do you get parts for those….? Oh yeah.
At least they put engine plugs on and hooked up some ground ventilation…. Never mind.

It’ll fly again. The day that it is allowed to. No maintenance action will be done. It’s a bring it back home immediately situation. In the meantime it’s paying $1300 per day to sit where it sits, and frankly, it’s become a navigational aid for me to remind me to turn at the next intersection
Re: Russian Antonov-124
I'm just curious as to what date in history you're using as your "this land will always belong to this nation", is it arbitrary? Is it selected solely to advance your beliefs?redlaser wrote: ↑Thu Dec 05, 2024 2:54 pm The plane is so huge it's taking up a lot of airport real estate, the Canadian government has no right to make up laws to steal another countries property, namely Russia, and Ukraine belongs to Russia no matter what the americans or canadians say, Why is the Canadian government letting these foreign Ukrainian who don't speak English into our country, send them back to Russia,
I say we use the demarcation from 82,675 years ago. One big happy family of no nations. Problem solved.

There was no press ganging. There is a lot of recruitment posters around that very by which Oblast you're in.
Until you've had your sole on the soil within the AO. You don't know a goddamned thing about which you're talking.

Great thinking comrade.
No elections to influence?

In Ukraine, it is currently illegal to disseminate any sort of information that could go against the regime's war effort.all_ramped_up wrote: ↑Fri Dec 06, 2024 4:18 pmReally? Have you been there?

For that reason, it is prudent to be skeptical of any information that originates from areas under the control of the Kiev regime.
The fact that I'm not physically located in Ukraine allows me to provide a more objective observation than someone who is there.

I've been there, watched the incoming over my head. I've done my part against the ruzzian aggression.
The war would be over tomorrow if ruzzia withdrew to the borders of 1991.
